This was a big one. The photos were taken after the peta2 Take Action Conference in Toronto last week. More on that on peta2’s blog (fair warning: my peta2 colleagues tend to use a lot of hip, slangy, young-people lingo, so try not to let it get you down), and there are plenty more pics on this Flickr photostream. Anyway, what I’m trying to say here is that’s a lot of people protesting that one little Toronto KFC. I bet they were pretty surprised. Nice work, peta2. You guys are, like, totally rad.

Oh My Gosh
I'm Totally Glad That People Are Protesting Against These Sorts Of Things. I Would, But How Many Companies Etcc Listen To One Protester. :[
But Thankyou To All The Big Protester Groups Not Just For PETA But All The Protection For Animals (etc) Groups. Because They Cant Ignore You For Much Longer. People Are Beginning To Take Action :)

Now that kind of solidarity is impressive, and increases the chances of media coverage. Way to go, Toronto! See, Canadians are very compassionate, and soon we'll be getting rid of the seal hunt, once and for all.

Job well done...if people aren't outraged they are not paying attention.

I live in Hawaii and would like to meet other PETA people in the islands. Let's get together for the animals! Mahalo.

I really don't think KFC is going away either! There are too many people who love to eat chickens. I would be one of them!

I have not eaten KFC since I was way young after hearing a storie about- mad science things they did to chicken, (not sure if that was a true storie but at the time I thought so.) Then I began hearing about the treatment of these chickens. I've never been back to that place. And I tell everyone how they do treat the animals.
